Plan Description
This plan should be done after the offseason training plan and before race season or when you want to be in peak shape. Known as general preparation, the goal of base training is training to train to reach a higher baseline fitness. Training volume and volume of threshold specific work will increase throughout the plan. Strength training is adapted based on weekly triathlon sessions. As a result, this plan is suitable for most triathlon disciplines including olympic-, middle, or long-distance among others.
The plan combines the findings of studies investigating the effects of periodisation, intensity, and strength training on endurance performance. Carbohydrate guidelines will help you maximize performance for every session.
Performance testing will assess your progress along the way. Due to our standards, the plan is based on science and results-proven practice. Crafted with passion by pro-coach Roberto Vukovic and pro-triathlete Ruben Zepuntke.
